Caption: Want to Stick With Exercise? Match Your Workout to Your Personality. If you are struggling to enjoy workouts, new study suggests the key may lie in your personality. Published in Frontiers in Psychology, the research shows that different personality types are naturally drawn to different forms of exercise. Extroverts, for example, tend to enjoy high-intensity group workouts while those high in neuroticism prefer private, low-pressure sessions with breaks. People who score high in conscientiousness are more likely to maintain regular, balanced routines, often motivated by the long-term health benefits of staying active. Dr. Flaminia Ronca of University College London, the study’s co-lead author, says understanding personality could help engage people who struggle with fitness. With only around 20% of adults meeting the World Health Organization’s activity guidelines, experts say a personalised approach could make all the difference. Even individuals with mixed traits — like being anxious but disciplined — may benefit by recognising what works best for them.
